Venue Spaces
Two designated ocean view lawns available for your exclusive use for the duration of your event, ideal for both ceremonies and cocktail hour receptions.
Ocean-Facing Outdoor Ceremony Spaces
We offer two different oceanfront areas for hosting outdoor ceremonies at the Redondo Beach Historic Library in Veterans Park.
The North Lawn
Our sprawling grass lawn area north of the Library and closest to the Pier, with an incredible view of the ocean and partial shade provided by two trees, is ideal for couples looking for an ocean view ceremony with a capacity up to 320 guests.
The West Lawn
On the west side of the Library with stunning unobstructed South Bay coastal views, the West Lawn Patio is a gorgeous space combining a grassy lawn and concrete walkway directly in between the library and the beach, ideal for both outdoor ceremonies and an outdoor cocktail reception space.
Ceremony-Only Option at RBHL
We offer exclusive Wedding Ceremony Only packages. The West Lawn is available for one ceremony-only event per day with a fixed 2pm PST start time.
This package includes city permission for use of the space, a microphone, speaker, seating for 100 guests, and ocean views to be enjoyed by both the couple and all guests.
The 2026 pricing (plus tax) is $4,000 for Monday-Thursday and $5,500 for Friday-Sunday.

Throwback Thursday to when one of our vendors was married at the Redondo Beach Historic Library, circa 2000! 📸💍🌅🍏🍋✨
💐 @RollingHillsFlowerMart, we look forward to having you return to your personal wedding venue as one of our preferred florists to provide stunning floral arrangements for future couples celebrating their own weddings!

Trend Alert! 📚📖 For couples looking for inspo, we absolutely loved how Dua Lipa and Callum Turner choose to incorporate books into their wedding reception as a nod to their origins as a couple. If you’re looking for a venue that already has the bookshelves ready for you to fill with personalized tie-ins from your own love story, contact the Redondo Beach Historic Library through the link in our bio!
In addition to her pop music career, Dua Lipa is known for being an avid reader and for running a book club. When she and Callum Turner connected in Los Angeles, they discovered they were both reading Trust by Hernan Diaz, which is why books were incorporated as part of the décor at their wedding reception. 🥰
Psssst! 👀 Slide to the last photo for a sneak peek on the current status of the Redondo Beach Historic Library renovations in the Grand Hall…!!!
